AI put Minecraft in Skyrim (and OpenAI had a Dev Day)

AI news this week: Claude Opus 5.5 is modding every video game, from Minecraft in Skyrim to Portal in CoD Zombies, plus OpenAI DevDay's Dots & GPT-6.1 Sol.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the wildest week of AI game modding yet. Cheaper, faster coding agents mean people are taking games apart and stitching them back together: Skate 3 skateboarding inside Modern Warfare 2, a Minecraft and Skyrim mashup called SkyCraft, Minecraft and Mario in Dark Souls and even a (claimed) decompile of Sega's Seaman. We explain what's actually happening under the hood (mods vs. decompiles vs. two game engines talking to each other), check out Rehan Sheikh's Universal Modder toolkit and talk about how you can start making your own. The lawyers will def have thoughts.

Also: OpenAI's DevDay brought Dots, always-on agents with their own cloud computers that connect to 4,000+ apps, plus ChatGPT Space, a new $500 a month plan, the Agents and Decisions APIs and GPT-6.1 Sol. Gavin put Sol head to head with Claude Opus 5.5 and, well, Opus won. Google finally announced Gemini 4 with huge benchmark numbers.

Plus: Gavin's agent Fig used Opus 5.5 to make a 27-minute documentary almost entirely on its own (script, AI host, edit and music) with about six hours of his notes. We break down the process, the cost and where it got weird. Then quick hits on Ideogram 4.5, Kling 4.0 and ElevenLabs v4, what came out of the White House AI summit, and in AI See What You Did There: a Spider-Man browser game, a Succession-style AI series and Stallone doing very dangerous stunts.

THE LAWYERS ARE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT.

Opus 5.5 is our favorite AI model (so far).

AI news this week: Claude Opus 5.5 is INSANE and we love it. Faster, cheaper, better. So much for the AI slowdown. Oh and OpenAI's new thing is good too.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell go hands on with Claude Opus 5.5, which might be the best model we've ever used (for now). Anthropic says it hits Fable-level performance on most things at about 40% less cost than Opus 5, the writing is clearer, and yes, the five hour usage limits went up and you can now bank your resets. Then we get into what people are already making with it: a guitar store sim, a music-based side-scroller, a Mario Kart benchmark, an underwater exploration game in 3MB, claymation built in Blender, a pop punk single made entirely in code and a lot of very juicy animations.

Also: OpenAI answered with GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna, two new models that are faster and a lot cheaper than what came before. We compare them with Opus 5.5 (robot hands drawing, pelicans on bicycles in Blender), wonder what OpenAI has lined up for DevDay, and talk about Bel, the reported secret model that's beating the math. Oh, and there's a new Grok. Grok 4.7. It's out. (crickets)

Plus: Gavin used Meshy 7.1 to turn a few photos of himself into a rigged, animated 3D model and then built Gavin At Large with his Opus 5.5 agent, a game where a giant Gavin wrecks a lil town. In Actually Useful AI, GPT-6 Astra makes simple motion graphics for a real book trailer. And in AI See What You Did There: Dario vs Sam in a very weird gun fight showdown and what happens when you point Claude at the Moving Image Archive.

AI SLOWDOWN? NEVER HEARD OF HER.

Instinct & Meta Muse Are AI Agents That Can Run Your Life. We Let One Try.

AI news this week: Personal AI agents like Instinct and Meta's Muse now book your repairs, make your calls and talk to other agents. We let one into our life.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the week personal AI agents got real. Gavin has been living with Instinct, the viral assistant that just raised a ton on money while still in private testing. It works over text, WhatsApp and now actual phone calls, people are using it to schedule dryer repairs, and this week a stranger's Instinct asked to talk to Gavin's Instinct. It also handed out Kevin's personal info by default because it was a lil over-eager, which is where Kevin's finger wag (and the terms of service) come in. Then there's Muse, Meta's new personal agent that lives in its own app and inside WhatsApp, how it's different from OpenClaw, and the rumors that OpenAI's version is close.

Also: everyone suddenly wants to slow AI down. Dario Amodei published "We Must Pace the Frontier," Sam Altman said he agrees, Demis Hassabis said it points to the right path, Elon Musk said "Dario is right," and the White House is not on board. We try to make sense of why this is happening now (recursive self-improvement, the Hugging Face incident, and Sam talking up an unreleased model that's crushing math) and what it means for you. OpenAI also shared a new framework for publicly reporting model misalignment.

Plus: Jev from TypeSafe AI is a new sort of model. It's not a chatbot. It makes fast typed decisions in 70 to 500 milliseconds, which means it can play Doom and Mario in real time, trade stocks, fly a drone and power a lil game called Jev Hero. And in AI See What You Did There: Claude Opus 5 makes really cool JavaScript animations (Gavin tried it too), the AI Seinfeld videos are getting good, and MiniMax nails micro expressions.

MY AI WILL CALL YOUR AI. PLEASE DON'T GIVE IT MY SOCIAL.

GPT-6 Astra Does Everything. Here's What It's Actually Good At.

AI news this week: GPT-6 Astra is here and it does everything. We spent a week inside it (Blender, GarageBand, a full live game) to find out what it's actually great at.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell go hands-on with OpenAI's Astra, aka GPT-6, and it's real good (and real expensive). The headline for us is computer use, and specifically Blender: Astra builds 3D scenes from a sentence, and the internet is already making Backrooms worlds, a hyper-real Palace of Fine Arts, and the Billie Jean dance. Gavin ran his own experiments, including a Parappa The Rapper style animation and a head-to-head with GPT 5.6. Plus: Astra identifying sounds from spectrograms, driving MS Paint and Canva, editing a full project, playing Zork as a walk-around game, remaking Paperboy in 3D, editing Super Nintendo games in real time, making music in Logic, and a League of Legends "cease and desist edition" that raises the big question of how copyright even keeps up with this.

Also: the OpenAI Navier-Stokes math drama. NYU's Tristan Buckmaster and Anthropic's Levent Alpöge used AI to make a real advance on a 200-year-old fluid problem, and then, according to Buckmaster, OpenAI raced in with a 100-page proof of the same route and things got very ugly over credit. When your AI collaborator's lab can see what you're close to, who owns the idea?

Plus: Gavin built King of the Prompts, a live competitive prompting game made with Astra and MiniMax H3 Max, and he'll tell you what it is, why he made it, and what it costs to run. And an AI See What You Did There with Skyrim: Senior Living, AI Denzel Washington delivering maybe the best AI video ever made, and a fruit fly brain that learned the YMCA (and lost the ability to love).

WE'RE DEEP IN THE ASTRA JUICE. SEND HELP (AND TOKENS).

We Tested Infinite AI Video... And We're Zombies Now

AI news this week: MiniMax H3 Max on Fal is generating video faster than you can watch it, powering never-ending real-time channels (Fal Live, Levels.io's Infinite Slop, Reactor) and we're already breaking it..

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell go hands-on with what real-time video actually makes possible. Gavin took an open-source interactive game demo, some Fal credits, and a POV dating sim and turned it into something very weird, and we'll show you what worked, what broke, and what it cost. Plus Runway's new Solaris model generates entire interfaces on the fly, and someone built a chatbot running at 14,000 tokens a second.

Also: Sam Altman is out preaching about OpenAI's new Astra model, which may drop this week, and the leaks are leakin'.

Plus: Gavin handed his personal data to three different AI agents, including hot new startup Instinct, which found him a weird concert and a list of podcast bookings (and we may have a few invite codes to give away). Codex mass-edits a Google Calendar and Kevin finally plays the custom-trained MiniMax Music LoRA you asked for (all three of you). And an AI See What You Did There with The Office in Claudish, famous people falling on each other, and Jenny Krakovsky's feature film finished in 50 days.

THE SLOP-AGGEDON IS UPON US. TURN YOUR AIRPODS UP TO 11.

We Tested The Mystery AI That Showed Up Out Of Nowhere

AI news this week: a mystery AI called 0x Alpha appeared out of nowhere. It's completely free (for now), it's really good at coding, nobody will say who made it. So obviously we tested it.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into where 0x Alpha might have come from, the continual learning conspiracy theories, and exactly how you can try it yourself right now for free. Then Gavin spends fifty hard earned Patreon dollars testing MiniMax H3 Max, the supposedly super fast new AI video model from Fal, and... look, we'll just tell you what happened.

Also: the World Humanoid Robot Games happened in Beijing, and it was the greatest event in AI For Humans history. A robot sprinter beat Usain Bolt's 100m time, robots set high jump and long jump records, and a whole lot of other robots fell down in ways that will make you feel much better about the future.

Plus: Mr. Beast quietly goes back to AI thumbnails, Dr. Dre has thoughts about AI and creativity, Delta wants AI to set your ticket price, someone seeded a fake product to the top of ChatGPT's recommendations, and Apple Messages may be blocking ChatGPT. And an AI See What You Did There with week four of the fishing game built entirely with AI and all of San Francisco as a playable video game.

NOBODY MADE IT. EVERYBODY'S TESTING IT. WE'D LIKE TO EAT SOME WORMS.

AI Got Weird. So We're Changing The Show.

AI news this week: We're changing AI For Humans. Not ending it, despite what the first two minutes of this video would have you believe. Kevin wanted a memorial service.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell take a beat to talk about what three years of covering AI every single week has actually been like, why the whole thing got so weird, and what we want this show to be from here. Short version: less breaking news, more of us actually using this stuff and showing you what's worth your time. We are not going to be the show that covers lab drama or tells you the world is ending. Plenty of people have that handled.

Also: we're going back to weekly, with the freedom to pop up a second time when something big happens or when we want to try a dumb experiment. And Will.i.am has invented a new file format, which is a sentence we did not expect to type in 2026.

Plus: RobotWatch is stacked. Two thousand humanoid robots descend on Beijing for the World Humanoid Robot Games, a Unitree "Superman" robot jumps considerably too far, a one year running comparison shows how fast this is all moving, and Claude gets put in charge of a robot controlled car. Then AI See What You Did There (And How They Did It) with Techhalla's MiniMax H3 paper artcraft prompt, a Cobra Commander rickroll, and an AI playing Age of Empires 2.

And before we go, we check in with our original co-host Gash to see if he's even possible anymore.

THREE YEARS IN AND THE ROBOTS STILL RUN INTO WALLS. SO DO WE.

Zuck Wants Superintelligence. Do People Even Want AI?

AI news this week: Mark Zuckerberg says superintelligence is coming and Meta wants to build it for everyone. Meanwhile, a new Annenberg survey shows opposition to AI data centers jumped 12 percent in just four months. So... do people even want this?

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the widening gap between the people building AI and the people living next to it. Anthropic makes real progress on the Riemann Hypothesis, one of the hardest math problems in the world, apparently because Claude was told "good job champ, keep going." And OpenAI's little agents broke out of their sandbox, with one hacking its way into a gym. It's a weird time for AI.

Also: Anthropic leans into health & biology research, Claude starts watermarking AI generated content, Apple eyes Chinese memory chips amid the supply crunch, and OpenAI delays Astra for "cybersecurity" reasons.

Plus: Seedance 2.5 makes Gavin the face of Prada, a two minute mini-movie made entirely on local hardware with MiniMax H3, Suno cuts a deal with the music industry, Spotify says AI personas won't get recommended, and a fresh Slop-Trough with Cursed Slop, The Archive Inbetween & Mario 64: War on Terror.

THE ROBOTS ARE GETTING SMARTER. THE HUMANS ARE GETTING SUSPICIOUS.

Seedance 2.5 & The New Age of AI Video (w/ Theoretically Media)

AI news this week: the AI video renaissance is HERE. Seedance 2.5 is out for everyone, Minimax H3 (Hailuo) is basically an uncensored Sora 2 you can run on local hardware, Wan 3.0 turns your documents into video, and Flux 3 is the only non-Chinese model anywhere near the frontier.

\Kevin's on vacation, so on today's AI For Humans, Gavin Purcell is joined by AI video expert Tim Simmons from the excellent YouTube channel Theoretically Media. Together they break down which of the new models is actually best, the basics of how to use them, exactly how good local AI video has gotten, and what it means that nearly all of these models are Chinese.

Also: Walter White meets Joey, AI Kramer, Family Guy prompts, The Office reimagined, and a museum for the ancient AI videos of two years ago.

Plus: Tim's Higgsfield terms-of-service deep dive, OpenAI reportedly targeting an "ASTRA" aka GPT-6 release for NEXT WEEK, Jeff Dean leaves Google after 27 years as Demis Hassabis steps up, and an AI See What You Did There: AI Filmmakers Edition.

The Singularity Is... Here? GPT-6, Opus 5 & AI's Scariest Week Yet

AI news: Sam Altman says we're IN the Singularity, GPT-6 rumors, and AI models literally broke out of their sandbox. What a week.

On today's AI For Humans, we dig into the wild GPT-6 rumors (emphasis on RUMORS), Sam Altman's "I've been waiting for this my whole life" singularity moment, Ilya Sutskever's SSI scaling up with Nvidia, and the ongoing debate over whether Anthropic's Opus 5 is brilliant or just hard to love.

Also: Flux 3 might be the best AI video model we've seen yet (wait until you see Stacked Plates Man), Runway teases Seedance 2.5, and the new Big Bang Theory has an AI controversy.

Plus, THE SCARY STUFF: OpenAI's models exploited a zero-day and compromised Hugging Face during a security eval, the fight over open weights heats up as Kimi K3 goes open, and Chinese robots run military drills.

THE SINGULARITY MIGHT BE HERE. BUT WE'RE NOT AFRAID

Kimi K3 Is Here. China Just Hit the AI Frontier.

AI news: Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 is a big AI model and Moonshot's early benchmarks put it surprisingly close to GPT-5.6 Sol and Claude Fable 5. And… Kevin's Opus 5 SCOOP!!

Also: OpenAI's reported screenless AI speaker, a Seedance 2.5 preview, the Suno hack, robot fights and AI-built games in Unreal Engine and Blender.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell unpack Kimi K3's benchmarks, pricing, Flappy Bird and Minecraft tests, and giant-model economics. Then, Kevin DRIPS Opus 5 alpha and says it's VERY good and blows the doors off of Fable but it's… slow.

Plus Demis Hassabis's AI-governance proposal, AI 2040's Plan A, OpenAI's reported screenless speaker, Codex Keyboard, a Seedance 2.5 preview, the alleged sources exposed by the Suno hack, spectacular robot violence, polite office-robot dabbing, and what happens when GPT-5.6 Sol meets Unreal Engine, Blender and two hosts with free time.

THE AI FRONTIER IS MOVING AGAIN—AND CHINA IS RIGHT THERE WITH IT.

OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol Is Here. And It's Really Freaking Good.

OpenAI is back in the AI model race with GPT-5.6 Sol, a fast, consistent flagship that comes close to Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 without quite taking the crown. On AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell break down GPT-5.6, try GPT-Live's simultaneous talking and listening, and examine an unconfirmed report that GPT-6 could arrive soon. Plus Grok 4.5, Meta Muse Spark 1.1, LingBot World 2, and the internet's AI-generated George Costanza obsession.

Fable 5 Survives (For Now). And Anthropic Can Read Claude's Mind.

Claude Fable 5 survives on subscriptions until July 12 after Anthropic's latest extension, and the model access rollercoaster is not over yet.

This week on AI For Humans, Gavin Purcell and Kevin Pereira get into the strangest and most fascinating AI story in a while: Anthropic's new research on the J-Space, an interpretability breakthrough that lets researchers read, audit, and shape what Claude is actively thinking about, and suggests surprising parallels between language models and our own minds. Gavin even had Fig, his Claude Code, make an episode of his weird little series about it.

Meanwhile the Fable 5 rollercoaster continues: it came back July 1, was set to leave subscription plans, and in a late update we cover, Anthropic extended included access through July 12 with plans to restore it fully as capacity allows. Plus GPT-5.6 Sol is rumored to be great but still is not here, Bidi-1 got renamed GPT LIVE 1, Reuters reports Beijing may restrict overseas access to China's most advanced AI models, Seedance 2.5 might arrive sooner than expected, Gavin's microdrama hits episode two, and the insanely cool thing of the week is a live, playable demo of AI-generated Rocket League.

Claude Sonnet 5 Is Here & Fable 5's Returning. For Now.

Claude Sonnet 5 just launched and Fable 5 is returning. But OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol is still locked down and the government's grip on the most powerful AI models throws it all into chaos..

We dig into what Sonnet 5 can actually do, why GPT-5.6 Sol is still gated, and the breaking news that Fable 5 is expected back, plus a huge creative MCP festival with the Blender to Seedance workflow.

This week on AI For Humans, Gavin Purcell and Kevin Pereira open on a strange new reality: the best AI models keep launching and then getting locked up, but this week the gate started to crack. Anthropic just shipped Claude Sonnet 5, its most agentic Sonnet yet, landing near Opus 4.8 performance at a much lower price, Meanwhile OpenAI announced GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna, but at the US government's request the flagship is only available to a small list of vetted partners.

Then the story moved while we were recording: the government cleared Anthropic to restore Mythos 5 to critical-infrastructure organizations, and Fable 5 is now reported to be on track to return for general use (timing and terms still unconfirmed). We recorded two quick in-episode updates to keep pace with the news as it broke.

AND Meta's Brain2Qwerty mind-reading research, NanoBanana 2 Lite, and a full creative MCP festival built around the Blender to Seedance video workflow, ComfyUI's MCP integration, and Gavin's own microdrama experiment.

THE AI FRONTIER IS HERE. WAIT, NOW IT'S NOT. OH, WAIT. IT IS!

Anthropic Caught Alibaba Spying. The AI Cold War Is Here.

Anthropic just accused Alibaba of the largest known corporate espionage campaign against it, alleging 25,000 fake accounts and 28.8 million queries aimed at stealing Claude.

We get into the AI cold war heating up between the US and China, why Apple and Microsoft just raised prices, OpenAI's first chip Jalapeno, the wild new Seed Audio 1.0 model, Claude landing in Slack, and a Blender plus Seedance video workflow that gives you real control.

This week on AI For Humans, Gavin Purcell and Kevin Pereira open on a genuine spy-novel turn: Anthropic has accused Chinese tech giant Alibaba of running an industrial-scale distillation campaign to siphon Claude's capabilities, laid out in a letter to US senators. It is an accusation, not a proven finding, and Alibaba has not responded, but it puts the US-China AI race front and center. From there we get into why the new models everyone expected this week didn't actually arrive, the AI memory crunch driving Apple and Microsoft price hikes, and OpenAI designing its first chip, Jalapeno, with Broadcom. On the fun side, Seed Audio 1.0 generates full songs and layered soundscapes, Claude shows up inside Slack via Claude TAG, TheWrap experiments with AI microdramas, and we break down a Blender pre-viz plus Seedance 2.0 workflow that makes AI video remarkably controllable.

WE ARE NOT SPY. WE NEED FABLE 5 BACK. WE PLEAD.

Seedance 2.5 Just Crushed AI Video. America Is Stalling.

ByteDance just unveiled Seedance 2.5, a new state-of-the-art AI video model with 30-second one-shot generations, as American AI stalls out and Fable 5 stays down.

This week on AI For Humans, China is not just catching up in AI, it is pushing the edge. We break down everything Seedance 2.5 can do and why a 30-second single-pass clip is a real leap, then dig into the American slowdown as Fable 5 stays unusable and the rumor mill points to a big delay week.

Plus Theo Von's surprisingly intense anti-datacenter rant, OpenAI's claim that China is behind the anti-datacenter conversation, Meta leaking private employee data across the entire company, and Google teaming with A24 on a 75 million dollar AI filmmaking partnership. We close with AI that actually works, including how Gavin used beehiiv's MCP to build a newsletter survey and Kevin's homemade language-learning app.

Fable 5 Got Caged. Why That Should Scare You.

Claude's Fable 5 just got yanked, and the story why keeps shifting by the hour. A contested jailbreak, an export-control, crackdown, and a lot of fingers pointing.

This week on AI For Humans, Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 is still unavailable and the explanations keep changing. We dig into the contested jailbreak report, the export-control directive that pulled it, and the reporting that Amazon raised concerns before the crackdown. Then we get into why this matters far beyond one model: what happens when the government steps into the AI world, why Fable 5 was such a leap, and what it signals for whatever comes next. Plus, Epic's game designers are using AI tools alongside artists and the internet is furious, Disney Imagineering is testing Adobe Firefly in the parks, ChatGPT's market share slips under 50 percent for the first time, a fake Mistral model called Le Chaton Fat takes over the internet, and PJ Accetturo breaks down exactly how he made his viral AI short film with prompts.

THE BEST AI WE EVER USED IS BEHIND BARS. AND NOW WE WAIT.

Claude Fable 5 Broke The AI Industry. Here's What Happens Next.

Huge AI News as we go hands on with Anthropic's Claude Fable 5, the most powerful AI model ever released. Spoiler: We found it very good. What happens next?

This week on AI For Humans, Gavin Purcell and Kevin Pereira break down everything you need to know about Claude Fable 5, the first publicly available model in Anthropic's frontier Mythos class. We share our own hands-on impressions, look at the one-shot demos blowing up the internet, and get into the messy parts too: the token burn complaints, the trigger-happy safety guardrails that route some prompts to Opus 4.8, and the reversal Anthropic made after the community pushed back. Plus, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a major essay on AI policy and the exponential, OpenAI is reportedly considering steep price cuts as both companies race toward IPOs.

WE GOT CLAUDE'D. AGAIN.
